You are in a beautiful, gardened courtyard, which is enclosed with a
white iron fence.  Flowers of every kind and description grow in small plots
here, their delicious aroma filling your nostrils.  There is more of the
courtyard to the south, while to the north, the fence opens to a large
garden.  
     The sliced off tail of a deer is lying here.
